PISTON RING AND CYLINDER WEAR: AN APPRAISAL OF CURRENT PROBLEMS

Abstract

The following is a paper presented to the SAE National Fuels and Lubricants Meeting at Tulsa, Oklahoma, on November 5th, 1954 by ARTHUR M. BRENNEKE (Chief Engineer) and M. E. ESTEY (Chief Research Engineer) of the Prefect Circle Corpn., and we consider that their work, though, as they said themselves, largely inconclusive, may inspire some new approaches to the solution of old problems notably that of cylinder bore wear. The paper should certainly invoke discussion from those whose work is reported to have proved exactly the opposite of some of the results that these authors have obtained. We are accordingly printing this paper in full.
